It features a 5\/8-inch cutting diameter, a 3\/4-inch length of cut, and three flutes arranged in a variable-index configuration that reduces harmonic vibration during aggressive cuts. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation, which is critical when machining aluminum alloys. A reduced-neck geometry extends reach to 3.375 inches while maintaining rigidity. This end mill ships uncoated with a bright finish and is built for professional machinists running CNC mills in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is engineered for aluminum milling applications where chip load management and surface finish matter. The variable-pitch flute spacing minimizes chatter at higher feed rates and spindle speeds typical of aluminum work. The straight cylindrical shank measures 5\/8 inch in diameter, fitting standard ER and side-lock toolholders. The 6-inch overall length and extended-reach design make it suitable for reaching into deeper pockets or stepped features without sacrificing cut stability. It is a single-end tool intended for right-hand cutting with right-hand flute direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch cutting diameter with 3\/4-inch length of cut for controlled material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-flute variable-index design reduces vibration and chatter during aluminum cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced-neck geometry provides 3.375 inches of reach for deep-pocket access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable, allowing direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction throughout for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suited for aluminum where coating adhesion can cause built-up edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in the HELICAL SOLUTIONS End Mills for Aluminum series, 3-Flute Square 40-degree Helix Variable Pitch Reduced Neck configuration.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the toolholder and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before production cuts to protect both the tool and the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.75 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.84 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HELICAL SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46495\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744539017522,"sku":"46495","price":283.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/421af9b8e5910b90b6351c001f807262_2cf261f5-8fa0-4d5c-a519-4c51b0eb1068.jpg?v=1788857777","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-46495-square-end-mill-5-8-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
